Roots of Madness #2 teases the magic and horrors to come

Posted on by

Etta has arrived at the Meridian Fellowship and immediately begins taking advantage of their facilities. Only, the strange history of the place begins preying on her mind. The people she has met all offer a glimpse of a different kind of life, but the natural world around her hints at something primal and ancient. Her dreams have already begun to change, showing her the strange wonders that await. Only the kindly Solomon grounds her, giving her fair warning of what she may be about to encounter, but also suggesting that her mother’s pendant may be her connection to the cosmos.

Undeterred, Etta begins her experiments, looking to unlock the secrets of her mother’s teachings–but what is revealed is beyond what even she has imagined.

No Place #1 is a solid debut that goes in an unexpected direction

Posted on by

Mariposa Montiel is having a cruel homecoming. As the daughter of immigrants, the outcast teenager is no stranger to scrutiny, but this is another level. Years after vanishing from her Chicago neighborhood, Mari has returned to a traumatized family and a media circus with nothing but a tiger-striped feather and an extraordinary tale of her time away as the champion of a magical jungle land called Mayahuela.

Mari is met as a fraud and her story makes her a stranger in her own life until an eccentric, high-tech organization known as N.O. Place emerges from the shadows and welcomes her home. Led by a legend of the Land of Oz, the secret agency has its finger on the pulse of so-called fictional worlds—and as its newest recruit, Mari is now called upon to save our own world from a creeping Lovecraftian nightmare.

Get an early look at The First Freedom: The Story of Opal Lee and Juneteenth

Posted on by

On February 3, 2026, Oni Press will release First Freedom: The Story of Opal Lee and Juneteenth, the first-ever graphic novel dedicated to the history and origin of the Juneteenth holiday. This timely and topical 208-page biography chronicles the inspirational journey and resilient determination of Dr. Opal Lee — known as the Grandmother of Juneteenth — who spent decades in pursuit of one singular cause: to officially recognize American emancipation with its own national holiday. Ahead of its publication during Black History Month in February 2026, Oni Press is unveiling the very first preview of this historic and eagerly anticipated publication by acclaimed journalist, producer, and author Angélique Roché, artists Alvin Epps, Bex Glendining, and Millicent Monroe, and colorist Damali Beatty with lettering by Alexis Bennett with Andworld Design. 

First Freedom: The Story of Opal Lee and Juneteenth was created with the support and involvement of both Dr. Lee and her granddaughter, Mrs. Dione Sims, and is brought to life by three distinguished artists. Writer Angélique Roché conducted in-person interviews with Dr. Lee and immersed herself in extensive research for the book. The ambitious biography, which includes back matter that provides more insights into Juneteenth’s history and the making of the graphic novel, will be released 46 years after Juneteenth was first recognized as a statewide holiday by the state of Texas and five years since it was finally recognized as a national federal holiday. The book will also be published as part of a yearlong celebration of Opal Lee’s 100th year on Earth.

Born on October 7, 1926, in Marshall, Texas, Opal Lee grew up in a racially divided America and dedicated her life to overcoming the obstacles presented therein. A lifelong educator, Dr. Lee has been a community activist all her life, and she would take on the movement to celebrate and commemorate Juneteenth not just as a holiday, but as a symbol of comprehensive freedom for all people.I n June 2021the then-94-year-old Dr. Lee sat in the front row as an honored guest at the White House as President Joe Biden signed the bill to make Juneteenth a federal holiday. Dr. Opal’s life personifies the fight for everyday freedoms that leads to lasting change – and as the Grandmother of Juneteenth says, “There is so much more to do.” 

Discover the life of an extraordinary woman’s path through contemporary American history and the rarely told true story of the Juneteenth holiday itself in First Freedom: The Story of Opal Lee and Juneteenth – coming in February 2026 from Oni Press.

The Beauty #1 has a great concept and some fantastic art and an intriguing concept in today’s world

Posted on by

Set in a world not unlike our own, The Beauty chronicles what happens when a new sexually transmitted disease begins to spread. Only, this is a disease that people actually want, as those who contract it are literally changed into more beautiful versions of themselves. The only hitch is a slight fever and, eventually, death. But isn’t that an easy price to pay to be gorgeous?

This new series follows several characters as they deal with the Beauty and how it has changed society around them. A thief for hire on a dangerous job, a meteorologist with plummeting ratings, and special agents specializing in Beauty-related crimes will all find their lives converging in unexpected ways. And some fan favorite characters from the original series will return, as well.

Posted on by

Mina is an avid fan of true crime podcasts, but she never dreamed she’d find herself in one. Or more accurately, that she’d fall victim to a frenzied killer driven to violence by the mysterious Dead Sounds podcast that is causing bodies to pile up across the Pacific Northwest. With a personal stake in figuring out what is going on, Mina and her friends will take a cue from the investigative journalists who disappeared making Dead Sounds and try to get to the bottom of the tragic crimes. And if she also has time to get to know that cute guy who owns the coffee shop, that’s a bonus!

Deluge #1 delivers solid horror in an interesting location with a unique concept

Posted on by

A hard rain is falling on Sieverville Correctional Prison for Women. As the river rises and its banks overflow, the same walls that are keeping the prisoners inside the fortress-like structure are failing to keep the water out.

With that water comes something else. Something deadly.

What was once outside is now inside, and the prisoners and guards will have to find a way free, because if the water doesn’t get them, the monsters will.

A hard rain is falling on Sieverville Correctional Prison for Women. As the river rises and its banks overflow, the same walls that are keeping the prisoners inside the fortress-like structure are failing to keep the water out.

With that water comes something else. Something deadly.

What was once outside is now inside, and the prisoners and guards will have to find a way to get free, because if the water doesn’t get them, the monsters will.

In this terrifying new horror series, readers will follow a group of inmates as they attempt to traverse the flood waters while also avoiding both the very real monsters that are swimming beneath the surface and the proverbial monsters from their lives before incarceration that lurk inside themselves.

Roots of Madness #1 is a slow but solid build up and has us wanting to find out more

Posted on by

At the turn of the 20th century, a young Black woman named Etta picks up the tradition of her late mother for creating special medicines using natural ingredients and secrets handed down from generation to generation. Her mother has passed on a book of recipes and formulas, but it’s also full of strange symbols and dark musings that she doesn’t quite understand. Within her community, one of the problems she hopes to fix is counteracting the poisonous and abrasive solutions Black women and girls are sold for straightening their hair. So, when the Meridian Fellowship reaches out and offers her a spot at their institute in Savannah, GA, to use their facilities to do her research, Etta jumps at the chance. She packs up her mother’s book and heads to the sprawling establishment, but what she finds is a place surrounded by natural wonders that may point the way to understanding the more mysterious parts of her mother’s work…if dark forces don’t claim her first.
